Honey and syrups

Concentrated sugar is found in honey and syrups like agave or maple. They can easily raise your daily carb intake without offering much in the way of nourishment. Because maple syrup and honey are both sweeteners, they should be limited in the diet, especially in the keto diet.

Honey has slightly lower levels of fat than maple syrup but is slightly greater in terms of calories, carbs, and sugar. Although maple syrup has more sodium than honey, it also has more micronutrients like calcium and manganese. For instance, 1 tablespoon (21 grams) of honey contains 17 grams of carbs, compared to 13 grams in 1 tablespoon of maple syrup (20 grams). Although these provide minerals and antioxidants, they can trigger blood sugar increases and flip you out of ketosis.
